Abstract: Multirhythmicity, a form of multistability, in an oscillator is an intriguing phenomenon found across many branches of science. From an application point of view, while the multirhythmicity is sometimes desirable as it presents us with many possible coexisting stable oscillatory states to tap into, it can also be a nuisance because a random perturbation may make the system settle onto an unwanted stable state. Consequently, it is not surprising that there are many natural and artificial mechanisms available that can control the multirhythmicity. We propose in this paper the idea of incorporating parametric (periodic) modulation of the nonlinear damping in the limit cycle oscillators with a view to exciting resonance and antiresonance responses at particular angular driving frequencies, and controlling the resulting birhythmicity by changing the amplitude of the modulation. To this end, we employ analytical (perturbative) and numerical techniques on the van der Pol oscillator---a paradigmatic limit cycle system---having additional position dependent time delay term and its modified autonomous birhythmic version. We also bring the fact to the fore that introduction of delay---a commonly adopted method of controlling multirhythmicity---in such a system can sometimes bring forth unwanted birhythmicity; and interestingly, our method of controlling birhythmicity through periodic modulation can suppress such a delay induced birhythmic response.
